The food coffee and service is kinda like that too. Ive had big brekkie, shamsuka, few odd teas and coffees and cold drinks here and there. Definitely one of the better cafes in sydney. Reasonably priced and tasty i highly recommend this joint if youre passing thru the area Service is pretty good considering how busy it is at brekky times.

We did try a few and they were very nice. The pulled pork was delicious and the eggs Benedict was good. Coffee was OK. The staff were very nice and apologetic and food was served quickly. We have seen this place full but it was empty today. Today was lunch 1pm on Wednesday. It is like a little oasis and in the middle of suburbia.

Damn, this place is pretty fly. I've passed by it but I'd never gone in for a meal until today…read more I've always been fascinated by the coffee brewing in all the science like glass wear. It drips and percolates and fumigates and yeah I know nothing about coffee. Even with the modern look of the cafe it still has it's homely pleasures with the solid wooden and metal tables. The menu maintains traditional cafe meals while exploring flavour combinations which sound, look and TASTE impressive. Order at the counter. Pay at the counter. Take your number and take a seat. The service is very fast. It was our waitress's first day. She had been trained very professionally and knew her stuff. Big breakfast for myself and a breakfast gnocchi for the wife. I know. Breakfast pasta? Could such a thing work? My wife being the pasta-holic that she is needed to try it out. The big breakfast was excellent. The eggs (scrambled) were perfect. Everything perfect. Even the pile of smashed avocado, sitting in the centre of my plate like a fat green blob, tasted great. Avocado usually freaks me out. The breakfast gnocchi was amazing but became overwhelming in the later half of the meal. The gnocchi itself was the creamiest clouds of potato yum-yum I'd ever had. The crispy potato skins added wisps of texture throughout the meal. The tomato chutney sauce was delicious but was also the reason why the flavours become too intense. Two coffees and two meals came to a solid $51. A bit steep but it was very tasty and well worth it. Kept us full all morning and early afternoon. We'd return here again.

In all honesty I was surprised how awesome this place actually was. In front of the Coles you would…read morenot look twice, but this would be a mistake as this little cafe is great! Now as it is in a shopping center the atmosphere is not as hipster as other cafes, but for once I think we can get over the place of a cafe, if the food and coffee are worth it. The best thing here is the food. Firstly it came out quite quickly, and I was starving at the time, this was greatly appreciated. Secondly, it was fantastic! Worth every cent that I paid for. Now, I've only come here for breakfast so no idea how good the lunch is. When the coffee came out I was slightly anxious. Would be as good as the food? It was a good cup, but not the best cup of coffee I've ever had, hence why only 4-stars. However, I think it is better than all the other cafes in the center. So if you are in the area, this cafe is definitely worth the visit.

Smelly Cheesecake Cafe, I love you so "matcha"!…read more Sydney seems to be having a love affair with matcha as big names such as Café Cre Asion and Chanoma Cafe are topping the lists of must-visit places. Trendy, it is. Healthy, it is also! Matcha is known to be a superfood that is rich in nutrients and antioxidants, improves energy and increases energy levels to name a few benefits. Riding on this wave is The Smelly Cheesecake Cafe with some inspired matcha dishes, namely the matcha cheesecake which was absolutely phenomenal. The top layer of matcha was fluffy, added a pop of pale green color to an otherwise traditionally monochromatic dessert and the flavor was quite subtle but definitely noticeable. The bottom cheesecake was decadent, added a bit of tang and was supremely smooth and creamy. The matcha layer made up about 80% of the dessert while the actual cheesecake layer made up about 20% which may seem like a huge discrepancy but eaten together, it was the perfect concoction as it wasn't too rich, wasn't too sweet and wasn't too tangy. Portion-wise, it was a bit on the smaller side as it left me craving more. Before I talk about the iced matcha latte, I must preface this by saying that I'm a big fan of Starbucks' Green Tea frap. The one I had at the Smelly Cheesecake Cafe was much less sweet and just as creamy and refreshing. I don't have a single bone to pick when it comes to this spot. Plenty of comfortable seating, some pillows, inviting atmosphere and super friendly service! Perfect for a catch up session or even a date.
